Excellent look at monopoly power with its many embedded facets. Reminds me of the judge that called for a breakup of Microsoft products due to its control power through Internet Explorer browsing forced on Windows users. With WBush winning election, judge was replaced.

Didn't MAGA get really upset about an image of an Iran mural of Trump, dead, lying 'in state' (??)? Imagine if it had the words, 'Mission Accomplished?' Just another form of Trump lying?

Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines. When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
As you can tell from this short thread, Korte is a pro, and some national MSM outlet ought to pick her up and get her back in print, pronto. You'd get a lot of great stories, and you'd drive Hegseth bananas.

I’m a media critic. In my newsletter I take mainstream news outlets to task for normalizing the dictatorship that’s unfolding around us. But it’s the duty of all of us – not just the media – to sound the alarm. Your family and friends may not understand how bad it’s gotten. Tell them.
The media are missing the story of our lives: a looming dictatorship
News outlets’ downplaying of the danger is shameful journalism neglect

Via Ian Welsh and naked capitalism: www.presstv.co.uk/Detail/2026/... Why has this violence aboard the carrier USS Abraham Lincoln gotten no coverage? Deaths are killings. Not suicide. Story seems more like a mutiny than a fight between crew members.
Tally and Jerry Leonard began skating together at the mall rink in 1967, and they've performed there four days per week since. But recently, the mall rink closed. As part of the closure, they performed one final routine together to Nat King Cole’s “L.O.V.E.” https://wapo.st/4qbnG5g

“We don’t need the Pentagon hiding more information from FOIA. We need it to actually respond to public records requests, we need it to stop harassing journalists for doing their job, and we need it to be transparent and accountable to the public,” said FPF's @laurenleharper.bsky.social
Freedom of the Press Foundation@freedom.press · 2mo agoThe Pentagon's proposal to exempt “controlled unclassified information” from FOIA would allow the agency to unilaterally hide millions of files — potentially forever. Today a broad coalition of rights organizations urged Congress to reject this secrecy grab.
